HOW DOES IT HELP YOU?
Eclipse Farm 3G helps you to screen more than 50 antibiotics from 8 groups with just one drop of milk, avoiding milk rejection upon arrival at the plant, problems in the production of fermented dairy products. Besides, you will comply with the maximum residue limits in milk established by the European Union.

APPLICATIONS AND USERS
ASSAY PROCEDURE
TEST PRINCIPLE
ECLIPSE test is based on the growth inhibition of Geobacillus stearothermophilus bacterium. In a specific culture medium and under suitable conditions, the spores of this bacterium germinate and multiply, acidifying the medium, producing a colour change in the culture medium from blue to yellow. If the milk sample contains an antimicrobial concentration higher than the test detection limit, the bacterial growth is inhibited and therefore the colour change of the medium will not occur.
